CHANEL N5 L'EAU

10/03/2016

I grew up with the scent of Chanel N5 around my house. Until this day, it is my grandmother's favorite scent and just like me, I'm sure many of you grew up with that scent around your houses and around your childhood memories as well. It is that iconic perfume that everyone that we love- knows about, has tried on or owns. When I found out Chanel N5 was going to be reinvented I was a little surprised as everyone is with change at first. Chanel's in house perfumer, Olivier Polge's interpretation of Chanel N5 "L'Eau" is all about giving the younger generation the best of the original but with the things we all now appreciate: purity, modernity and freshness.

It's fresh as it has citrus notes of lemon, mandarin and orange amongst others, it still has the lingering scent of jasmine and as a new addition, cedar wood has been incorporated as a base note. Most importantly, the beautiful soft scent of roses is still there and it is certainly my favorite. Just like the original, Chanel N5 L'Eau has the power of making you feel unique, confident and feminine but this new expression is like magic in a bottle made for the younger and dynamic women of today!
